I used McCall's 4369 pattern as a base an modified it as follows (it is currently out of print).

After making a muslin mock up, I doubled the height of the collar. The puff sleeves can be made by either enlarging the included pattern or using a puff sleeve from a separate design. I wanted my sleeves to be quite large, so I made muslin mock-ups until the desired size was achieved. In addition, I stuffed my sleeves with fiberfill (if you choose to go this route, the sleeves will be lined with the pattern included with M4369).

The muslin allowed me to see how high I wanted the leg cutouts. With pencil, I drew the lines on and cut accordingly. I also took the time to roughly draw the swirly patterns so I would have a guide to for my final dress. I appliqued the gold designs, but it is very time consuming and at times, aggravating. I have made a second Chun-Li variant (black and red, for Otakon), and the applique portions were much easier this time

Hey everyone. So this next year I am planning on making a Chun Li costume for myself and a Skullomania costume for my brother. I don't need any tips or anything like that (yet) but I thought I would just drop in an introduce myself.

Sweetness. I've seen a Skullomania cosplay a couple times this year. =D
I wish you luck on it. ^^

Hey thanks! I have yet to see one at all, which is part of the reason we picked it... But yeah, hopefully everything will go smoothly with this costume. :P I woul dhate to find out the reason why I never see any is because it's too difficult to make.

well I have done SF 3rd Strike Yun and Fei Long alternate costume.

just recently came back from Otakon 2012. I be interesting in gathering a group of cosplayers for a SF vs Tekken vs KoF group cosplay for the future. Since I don't really see much different SF cosplayers besides the extremely popular ones. I will look more forward to it as a whole group rather than a few here and there.

Me and my friends are going to join a party with street fighter theme. However we know about it rather late as such I'm rushing to source for costumes for several characters. Will really appreciate it if any of you can help with any of following characters. Our budget is ~ US 70 each. Thank you so much!
